Final comments

Lille is a very convinient city to get to know not only France, but also neighboring countries like Belgium, Luxembourg etc., with which it has high speed train connection. The Central Library of Lille is very rich and famous. The city is lively, and can be describes as student city and important commercial centre in one time.
